Sales in Agile (SWAY)

– postponed –

WHAT is this training all about?

Sales teams of the past and present tell us different stories. Customers, their values, and the customer journey have all undergone tremendous shifts. Today’s consumer market is represented by individualized consumers who prefer unique methods of purchasing. Thus, sales teams now are conceptually different. Traditional schemes of “pushing” the product via telemarketing or direct mail are irrelevant. With the invention of cutting-edge technologies and overall digitalization, successful sales are impossible without integrating the CRM system on a much more personal level. In fact, customers are more and more reluctant to communicate over the phone while favoring making purchases via social media channels. That is why businesses that picked up on the trend and managed to adapt their customer relations accordingly were bound to succeed. Indeed, companies that utilize Facebook, WhatsApp, Telegram and similar tools for communication, promotion and sales have already taken the lion’s share of the market; whereas large, inert companies that are slow to change are experiencing a continuous decline in the sales rate.

Another aspect that differentiates the modern business is leadership structures. Today, it is not “the boss” or “the chairperson,” but the true charismatic and creative leader who inspires and guides the team. The team, in turn, now is not just a “group of people” but a cross-functional organism brought together by one goal. The goal is defined not only by quantitative factors but also by the qualitative ones. Before, the sales industry was governed by the laws of the jungle; where sales managers were armed with personal project portfolios and clientele, akin to lonely wolves. Now, to experience true success one needs a team. It is the team that creates new ideas and values, establishes communication and interacts with clients.

To refuse to adapt to these changes is to risk the collapse of your company. That is why you need SWAY – a universal methodology that will assist your company to go through the adaptation process. Standing for “flexible”, “quick”, and “nimble,” Agile can make your sales flexible, quick, and nimble as well.

Continuous self-development
